Chapter XXIX: Blizzard of Blessing


This week was pretty awesome on just about every level. It included not just one, but two band practices, a big snow storm, a Super Bowl, our first show, and some good fellowship.

To start, the snowstorm was pretty awesome. The snow in itself was just as beautiful as it was fun. Two of my closest friends ended up staying at my house Tuesday night because of the weather, and we all celebrated our snow day with a lazy morning of pancakes and video games.

Our band, Misfit Plaid, held two practices to prepare for our first show which took place over the weekend. Our show was a ton of fun, and we started building a decent fan base as well as make some good business connections.

Sunday morning came and brought another pile of blessings as well. In addition to a great worship service (despite some slip-ups), our church had a wonderful meeting to further discuss our core values. It's really encouraging to see the growth in our church as we overcome challenges. One such challenge was our worship, and our worship committee finally came to rest on a more permanent service structure (which includes the use of both organ and praise band every Sunday).

All in All, the week seemed to be a relentless shower of blessings from the LORD (including the healing of my leg!). As I sit in my living room writing this, I notice the snow piled up on my porch and I realize that my life is very similar in that the LORD has just immersed me in a blizzard of His love.

Forever Grateful,
-B
